Hi, this is my first time posting so I don’t really know reddit etiquette and whatnot, but that is besides the point! This is going to be a long one and potentially confusing one that is going to be posted on multiple groups(?) for maximum efficiency. If you can maybe help that would be VERY APPRECIATED!

I am a 18F who was born in London and has lived in London my entire life, my mum however is a Dutch immigrant and my father is African but is not in the picture and hasn’t been.

My mum and I have dutch passports, EVISAs, share codes and indefinite leave however, I had only found this out this year as I was/have applied to universities. I was accepted into my firm 2 days ago and am currently spiralling because of the enrolment process.

My uni has marked me as a ‘UK based overseas’ whilst I was completing the first stage of questions and I guess I am spiralling over whether I am paying home tuition fees or international tuition fees.

I decided to do further research into what UK based overseas meant and it lead me to looking at who qualifies as a British Citizen… It claimed:

If at least one of your parents was a citizen of an EU or EEA country when you were born

You’re automatically a British citizen if when you were born all the following applied to at least one of your parents:

they had citizenship of a country that was in the EU or the EEA at the time
they lived in the UK
they had ‘indefinite leave to remain’ (ILR), ‘settled status’, ‘permanent residence status’, ‘right of abode’ or ‘right of re-admission’

My mum lived in the Uk at the time of my birth, i can see it on my birth certificate however, when i asked if she had ILR she said she did and that she had this blue card. I don’t know if this blue card is valid anymore or how to go about this anymore. I don’t know if I am a British citizen or if I am eligible for a British passport or if I am going to pay international tuition fees?!?!?

Any advice is appreciated, I am genuinely spiralling. If anyone needs more information to try and help I would be happy to provide I just genuinely don’t know what to do. Thank you for reading.
